My 2007 Nissan Xterra ses light has been on for months. Come to find out it is due to a faulty fuel level sensor. I have now run completely out of gas 3 times because when my gas gauge does register it is wrong. This started at around 55,000 miles and now I am at 62,000 miles. The ses light never turns off and the gas gauge has been reading incorrectly or not at all for about 5 months.
Fuel level sensor malfunction fails intermittently and often. Check engine light stays on with code related for fuel level sensor. Does not go off when the fuel level sensor is working. Unable to obtain a vehicle inspection because of this. Unable to tell how much fuel is in the car. Risk of running out of fuel due to misinformation from fuel gauge. Recall is being performed for older year models of this vehicle, but not this one.
Service engine light came on dash. Pulled code and it is p0463. A service bulletin was released by Nissan which indicates is a common enough of a failure to release a bulletin. Is defective fuel sending unit. Dealer will not replace because out of 3yr/30k. Is common enough it should be done for free.
Fuel gauge not reading accuratly.
Purchased a brand new 2007 Xterra in November 2006. In the summer of 2009 at about 33,000 miles I ran out of gas in the gas station parking lot when the gas gauge read that I still had a couple of miles to empty. Service engine light came on and I could not get rid of it. A friend and local mechanic said that the fuel sensor was broken. The vehicle had exceeded the warranty mileage and the dealer would not fix it for free. This weekend on christmas eve I ran out of gas on the highway after writing down how many miles I had left until empty. According to the mileage I had written when I filled up, I still had about 70 miles to empty but with the cold weather, etc. The car must have used up more gas than usual. Luckily, no one was hurt but this posed an extreme danger to us given that the car stopped in the middle of a busy highway. According to several other Xterra owners, this is a common problem with Xterras but Nissan has issued no recall.
1. Do not appear to be any precursors to the failure. 2. My gas gauge does not work and check engine light is on. One minute it will show full, then next, completely empty. There is no rhyme or reason. Based on internet research, it appears it is the fuel sending unit. Car runs just fine but I never know how much gas is in the vehicle. I ran out in 120 degree weather with an infant in the car and had to walk to the gas station. What would have happened if it had happened on the freeway or over railroad tracks? 3. Called the dealer and they advised it would be almost $700 to fix. Vehicle is out of warranty, but this appears to be a similar problem to a recall in older models. If they are using the same part manufacturer, could it be the same part on my car? Nissan needs to recall this item.
Fuel sensor malfunctioned at 40,000 miles on 2007 Nissan Xterra causing fuel gauge to malfunction and check engine light to come on. Happens each time I refuel since July. This problem is widespread with many Nissan products. Nissan is not backing it if you are past 36,000 miles.
Filled my vehicle with fuel, and I noticed that the fuel level gage read empty, after I had put 17 gallons of fuel in it. This occurred when the vehicle had about 55,000 miles on the odometer. The fuel gage has become increasingly unreliable, reading empty when full; this has caused me to run out of fuel on two occasions. As the check engine light remains on, my vehicle will not pass the safety inspection with the check engine light on. This is obviously a defective part; Nissan will charge about $400 plus tax to fix this problem. This is a pervasive problem for Nissans; I have a friend who also owns the same vehicle; his failed at the same odometer reading. Automotive websites where consumers discuss Nissan vehicles are filled with complaints about this problem.
P0463 fuel level sensor failure at 39002 miles on my 2007 Nissan Xterra s. It occurred just past my warranty and the dealer would not repair under warranty.
